[s-cars] Security System Disconnect?

[Steve Mills]

The alarm module and the lock control module are connected, but
independent. The alarm module should be on the passenger side under the
rear seat. However, I'm not sure what happens when you unplug it- I'd hope
it was designed such that it can be disconnected without disabling the car,
but it should be easy enough to find out.
